We have observed the 8x9 arcmin box of the HETE GRB011212
(GCN #1194) with the 2-m telescope of peak Terskol observatory on
2001 December 12.85 UT. Our 4x300s exposure were centered on coordinates
RA=05h00m05s Dec = +32o07'39" .
The limiting magnitude of the image is Rmag about 21.5.
Visual comparison of the images with the DSS reveals no other obvious
new objects, to a limiting magnitude of roughly R~19.5."
Further observations are planned.
